Recipes – food

The last few posts have been health and beauty related...essential oils, cleaning, natural beauty tips...which have all been great. But we're talking peanut butter AND chocolate here! Together. In your mouth. At the same time. What a way to break the recipe drought right? 

If you know anything about me at all, you know my recipes are adaptable. And, I think, easy. But this is the easiest treat you will make. Think how easy chocolate crackles are, think honey joys....minus the sugar and oh so full of flavour and goodness! It is reminiscent of a snickers bar, easier than making...
